I would love to hear your financial story. Also, I have two main goals for the year, each of which need to be broken down into actionable pieces. (1) Get back into regular use of my bullet journal. (2) Transition from "getting past cancer" to "living a healthy life."
Same! I’m a cancer survivor. I still take a daily chemo pill, but completed active treatment in 2021. So I’ve felt stuck mentally. I decided this year I start the real healing mentally and physically from cancer. I know I’ll never be who I was pre cancer, but I want to be the strongest and healthiest I can be.
💕💕💕🫶🏾👏🏽
Hi Michele, love the diverse topics on your channel! I started following you when it was all about makeup/beauty. At the time, that was my primary interest. The pandemic lockdown came and went, consequently most of us reprioritized what matters most. Lifestyle, health, diet, fitness and home are what I seek from the content creators and podcast hosts who I follow. Please do share your financial experience, we all have one. I am happy to say that the earlier lessons of money are the best lessons I have learned. Enjoy the day!!
It’s hard for some if you have 2 incomes. Etc. Also if you have a single income as well. So yeah this would be interesting I, for one , never have extra to spend (not luxury like most buying clothes and purses. Etc ) I can’t even get one 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. I have always had to shop smart and I don’t own credit card bills. Etc. Just home now. But I want the secret. Ha
@@louisesharpyHonestly I feel that this whole ‘flexing’ thing on social media is a lot of it. And a lot of what you see isn’t the truth and people are living well beyond their means. Or they don’t pay their bills and buy a purse instead. I really don’t post much of what I buy. It makes me uncomfortable. I buy things I like and will use and enjoy. I’m a true taurus! My only advice is not to go into credit card debt to buy a bag. I think afterpay is ok if you have the funds and are diligent and keep track of it. I think that’s where the trouble starts for a lot of people. 😊
@@eatmyoctopus oh yeah. I know. Been on social a long long time. I don’t have credit card debt. It’s why I don’t own luxury I trousers to use them. It took a long time to get free of debt. Only because I have a small income. But yes, agreed
I turn 60 in May and my goal is to say no to any asks that tax/sap my time & energy. Fun, relaxation, self-indulgence at least once a week 💐🎉
I would LOVE to hear about your financial journey. I feel like it's hard to see the work that goes into people's financial state. I would love to learn more about how you planned, saved, etc. And any helpful advice you have.
Yes!!! Would love this also! ❤
@Michele Add me to the list of wanting financial advice! Love to hear from various perspectives and individuals
Hi Michele - would love to hear your financial experience and thoughts. I find the psychology/behavioral aspect of finances fascinating as I believe that sometimes we are all astute managers of our finances and sometimes not so much. I can definitely say that I have been swept up in the luxury hype more than once but not being a fan of debt (in general) has served me well. Thanks for sharing!
YES, I would love a video about your financial history. I’ve really been working on this, so I’d be interested in hearing someone else’s perspective. My goals for 2024 are to focus on my health and mental wellbeing (more relaxation and time off from work), learn more about wealth management and become more involved in my community.
Wonderful goals! Using that Smart technique, it might be an idea to think about specifics on health and well-being. Like..what does that mean to you kinda stuff. Supporting you from afar!
Can you listen to master class on audio while you drive back and forth to the gym ?
Due to my religion as an orthodox Greek Christian i dont plan long ahead, i live each and every day trusting God will take me where and i if i need to, because as pessimistic ws it sounds for many people, life has its own way and as we say in my country " when people make plans, God laughs " So my goal always is to be a better version of myself every day. Love from Greece 🇬🇷 ❤🎉 my beautiful Michelle ❤🎉
I agree with you. Now I have a new adventure. I just retired and am trying to figure that out.
Blessings 🫂
@@dierdremarsh7088 many blessings. God bless you all ♥︎♥︎♥︎
Greek Orthodox here. You are 💯 right. My goal is always living Orthodoxy and preparing for the life to come. ❤☦️
@@thestudiooftamraglaser5390 SO beautiful to meet you here ♡ God bless you ♥︎♥︎
I have no debt only my mortgage which I’m trying to pay off asap. We just build an enclosed porch paid all cash $30000. We upgraded our kitchen cash 4 years ago 45000. We payed cash for our cars. It took us years to save for house remodeling. Now we need a new roof $25000 to 30000. And we are saving for that. Meanwhile, we are sending extra principal payments for our mortgage. It feels so good to pay cash for everything. My car is 9 yrs old and paid off 7 years ago. It runs great. We believe in saving and spending less. We also want to paint the outside of the house but we will pay cash. It’s the only way to go. People please sacrifice and save
Thank you, Michele!! Sitting down together and thinking through some goals made it much less overwhelming. A few months ago, I finally quit my soul-crushing corporate desk job that I had for many years. I stayed for as long as I did, just because it was stable. But in truth I felt like a prisoner dying a slow death, and it finally got to a point where I just couldn't take it anymore. I'm so glad I finally left, but now, I feel like an empty shell: The only skills I have, are for a job that I hate. I have no idea what to do now, all I know is that I will never do anything close to that job ever again. I don't even know how to figure out what I want, much less how to bring it to fruition. I never had any dreams or goals for the longest time because I was just trying to survive. I feel so lost, directionless, skill-less, overwhelmed, paralyzed...So needless to say, this video came at a time that I really needed it!
I understand that soul-crushing feeling! Good for you for being true to yourself!!
I just had the same situation , only work decided to lay me off and i suddenly feel as u do.. pray u find ur passion ❤
I have no advice for u but totally relate to what u r saying. Currently in that soul sucking corp job. Trying to look for one slightly less soul sucking. Good luck in ur journey!!!!!
You gave me some great goals to think about, Michele. Finding new recipes would be a perfect one, but I must add "simple" to that!! 😊 I couldn't agree with you more about monthly payments. I was so very excited when I paid off my mortgage a few years ago. 🎉 I hate how streaming services are now charging monthly. I'd much rather do an annual subscription! Wow! Seeing you 5 times a week on RUclips would be great! I don't do Instagram or Tik Tok. I do enjoy shorts on RUclips as well as long form though. Good luck with your goals. At 74, don't laugh, one of my 2024 goals is to maybe start dating again (that word scares me silly). I'm not sure or even comfortable about looking on line. 🥴
You go girl. Wow.
74 is not old! I’d sure tie it to a fun thing to do goal!
You can do it. Paying off a Morgage is HUGE way to go. I am working on it. Why I’m the one who never has extra. Always a single paycheck. Single mom. Etc. But I can’t buy any luxury. Home first. I’m retired so my income sucks. You got this. Sorry to comment ❤
Never too old to go on a date! 🥰
@@louisesharpyAll comments are welcome. I understand the single parent and retired comments. While my children are 39 and 37 I was the only parent helping them out from ages 18 and 16 til college and nursing degrees were earned!!
Loved this video, felt like we were sitting together over a cup of coffee. I’ve always set goals and this year NO didn’t do any. 🤔 I like your SMART approach and will look into it and reconsider but having yearly makes more sense. I have really enjoyed your channel more this year than any prior years and thank you for sharing your goals with us.
I am so with you on the credit card debt…..I learned a valuable lesson from my past and have finally gotten things paid off. It took my line of credit….gone! When i buy anything beauty, home etc. i literally pay off the charge on my card…and get points to use for something fun! It freaks me out having any debt staring at me. My 20’s and 30’s were absolutely nuts with denial about what i owed. It takes good advice and not spending out of your reality. I can now in my 50’s feel good about how i spend.
Michelle we need to save more. Also Michelle- yes we do, whatever 🤣😂. I just love listening to you. Your mind banter sounds exactly like me. Love you Michelle.
10000% would love a finance video. i need to sort myself tf out. i have a great job. low cost of living. and yet i somehow still find myself being anxious about money
I have one goal, which means everything to my future mobility and health......strength training. As you know, I'm not young. I've seen myself becoming frail, which is the last thing 'extremely' mature individuals can afford to be. I'm finally going to take advantage of my free gym membership and build the muscle necessary to sustain old age. My goal is to age in place (gracefully) in my home until I'm carried out, feet first, toes up!😂
I have always loved your content, but I feel like I love it even more now, when it’s not just about every new luxury make up release. I really enjoyed Mishmass this year and specifically, it was so cozy and personal and just like a nice relaxing catch up with a friend. Love your idea of goals vs resolutions. I have to say I am thinking about watching RUclips, the way you are thinking about watching Masterclass - “Is that really what I want to spend my time on?” So I am becoming much more selective with what videos I watch. Some of my goals are - being deliberate about what I spend my time on, read more, cook at home more, take walks every day as much as possible, pay off some debt, work harder towards my career change. Would love to watch a video on your financial history if you feel like making one.
Unsolicited suggestion….before planning the improvements for your backyard, make it a goal to use the area, as it is, for 2 weeks. What’s missing, what do you like/don’t like. Focus on your realist self and not your fantasy self. Living in Florida, with my first pool/deck, I spent thousands setting everything up without intentional thought. I use the area MAYBE once or twice per year. I also have to stress whenever tropical systems come towards our state and I have to pack everything into the pool shed. Next time, I’m getting a folding pool chair, personal umbrella and a pool noodle. That’s all I need!
that's a great idea!
Interesting idea for any home project!
I have recently been following you and I LUV ALL YOUR VIDEOS because you are soooooo down to earth and I Luv that you decide what you want to talk about ANYTHING and on your own time as well. PLUS I LUV your wardrobe style👍🏼👍🏼too. You are FUN to watch and keep it up😊😊.
Michele, I love you! It’s like hearing my own voice, obviously, with a different tone, L O L, as I think things through. I often think about writing things out in a planner, and I’m all into the idea of the goals. Then I kind of get in my own head and think well if I write it down am I going to go back and literally updated and lotta times I start some thing like you were mentioning in your other video and then I get a couple pages in and then I never get back to it. Crazy I know. But I am kind of a goal person and you are making me think that maybe for 2024 I should be revisit this. I love the look of the planner but would like to know where you can get a cover similar to the one that you show.
Also, I’d love to hear about your financial experiences. Actually curious how you got to where you are.
I’m not a tic tok or instagram user. Love RUclips
omg yes please make a financial history video!!
I love how you have diverse topics that are all things we live but don't necessarily talk about or want to be reminded of, even though they're important. Yes, please do a vlog on finances.
I like your approach of using SMART - we use it in the work setting, so I don't know why I didn't think of it for personal goals haha! My goals for this year are to learn something new (I'm targeting a wine certification), build on something existing (last year I challenged myself to make a new recipe every week - this year, I'd like to make a new plant based recipe every week), and improve on my self care (last 2 years, it was all about skin care, this year, I'd like to learn more about hair/scalp care). Watching your video prompts me to revisit this next quarter to see what else I can add to my list so it's not an overwhelming one to start the year off with!
I am a success and mindset coach myself and also have a master degree in management. I want to congratulate you for having a coach! I always always have a coach myself to get better and becoming the best version of myself so I can help others better and better! I send you my love !
would love a video of your financial journey
Sooo… after watching your video, I went down the rabbit hole of planners and hobonichi specifically. 🤯 There’s an entire community that’s into this complete with stickers, labels, washi tape, etc that I didn’t know existed! The rabbit hole is deep. I barely got out. The exit price was $50. Never in my life had I paid so much for basically a notepad. I don’t know who I am anymore. 🙈
😁😁 yes, it is very easy to be sucked in. they are beautiful quality products though.
this narrative is so real
Yes to the financial history video, please!
A video about your financial history is such a good idea~ I’ve always been enjoying your content! Hope you have a wonderful 2024~💚
In 2024 I plan to save more money and I really need to be more intentional about eating more healthy foods. I usually don't make resolutions because they aren't sustainable for me.
Yes please to a financial video Michele!
Would love a video about finance .
Michelle, thank you for this video. I am not a "New Year Resolutions" kind of gal, never have been, never will be. I have, however, realized (after watching your video) that I need to make some realistic changes in my life regarding my finances, health, learning something new, etc. I will definitely be using SMART goal setting to help me in the process. Thank you for the inspiration, I need to really focus on things I have neglected to do for a long time. And yes, I would very much enjoy to hear about your financial experiences good and not so good and how you achieved/overcame those obstacles. ❤
Great video! My goals are to:
Create paintings for a solo show
Working with a company to collaborate on a painting/design project
Filming the process of the collaboration
Supporting my daughter applying to Glasgow School of Art
How wonderful!
It's good to have goals. Thankyou for sharing yours, it's inspired me to invest in a yearly planner (just the one).
Hi Michele. Love this video and your entire channel, but I have one burning question: How on earth did you keep your WHITE Hobonichi polar bear cover so clean through the entire year?!?! I'm in awe. It's pristine!! Please share your secret. 💖
I learned about SMART goals in the navy. Great stuff Michele ❤
Great video! Being realistic and having truly achievable goals is key and you really hit the mark. I totally understand your attitude towards debt, I’m the same and thankfully have been debt free since the 90s. I pay my credit cards before the statement is issued so I can see the zero balance. Sending positive vibes for all your goals!
Great video Michele! I'm in total support of your ranging beyond simply makeup, which is fun in and of itself, but these wide-ranging topics are interesting too. And I'm wholeheartedly in favor of your doing something on your financial history -- whatever you feel comfortable sharing. Anything that can be done to better educate Americans (particularly women) about financial management is a good thing. You probably have viewers who would be willing to give helpful ideas too. Loved the idea of making your goals manageable and really being honest with yourself as to whether you wanted to commit to them. My own prediction is you will discover more than a few healthy recipes during 2024. Thanks again for keeping us updated.
Yes to the financial history!
Hi Michele, yes please share with us some of your financial acumen and hurdles you had overcome hope to learn and apply it into ourselves and accumulate more knowledge. Love your videos, so soothing and inspirational.
I would love a financial video from you! ❤
Would love a financial history video!!
As a content creator with a Full time job, I wish I had more time to post more. But I have to be realistic and not go crazy. My goal is to post a YT video 2 to 3 a week. And a reel/short 2 to 3 a week as well. I also don't want to be buying everything and trying to post only New products. I Need to work on finding New ideas as well. I have a Blog which needs Love. So my goal is one post a month. Its what I can handle for now.
Thank you Michele for sharing your goals. It does really help ❤
Yes!!!!!! Please do a financial history video. Mine was a roller coaster too. !! ❤
Yes to a finance video! And I would also love to see a colour theory video from you - how it translates to styling and makeup combinations.
I love the Hobonichi Techo, it's my favorite planner and it's the only one I really use well.
I am very excited for the backyard content, also yes to a vlog re financial history........mine is also quite "varied"...lol
Hi Michele, thank you for sharing your goals and using the SMART methodology. I have used them for work with my team and it has been very useful. I love your contents and thanks for sharing your SMART goals. I hope you achieved them all in 2024! Good luck ☺️
I think the main goal for me is to keep being as active as I am, injury- and pain-free as much as possible. I want to be that person still squatting and deadlifting and riding when I'm 90+ 💪🏻🏇🏻🏋🏻♂
I would absolutely LOVE to hear about your financial journey! Finances are my favorite topic to research, learn about/from, listen to others, etc. I'm 33 yo and working on my own journey trying to make the best decisions I can and, ultimately, be a little better each day.
M!!! So grateful for this video 🫶🫶🫶 I finally found the tools how to break down and clarify my goals (both short and long terms) watching it. also got a confident- boost and believe that I can do it! 💪💪💪 Definitely interested of an economy video too!!
Big hugs to you and fat kisses to ms B- cutest Madame ever!!🖤🐾
Have you thought about maybe having a part of your backyard covered with netting for Miss Butters? I remember you mentioning birds of prey being a nuisance 🤷🏼♀️
I didn't hear anything about content on RUclips shorts. Additionally, I think 4 times a week for RUclips long form would be better. It's like every other day.
I hate monthly debt too. I don't mind auto pay or paying off my credit card each month. It's anything that I bought on credit because they were offering 0% interest for 18 months. Ugh, I hate that bill & I'm so afraid what if I miss it and now owe the full amount plus the 18 months of interest because I defaulted.
Hi Michele,
I’m sure everyone and their neighbor knows this, but as far as good quality healthy recipes - Downshiftology RUclips channel. Lisa is huge on RUclips and has released her own book of recipes. I’ve been following her for years, and even though I’m not gluten free like she is (her health issues inspired her to pursue this nutrition career, actually) - the recipes are so universal, versatile, rather simple, and simply great. Delicious and healthy. Just in case you haven’t heard of her but most definitely you must have.
Thank you for yet another inspirational video!
Hello 👋 Michele catching up 👆 my friend sorry 🙏 I've been not feeling well its my heart ♥ again unfortunately 😢well hope you're having a good day at least ! 🫂💕🙋♀️
Interesting vlog. I like the distinction between goals and resolutions. My only major goal for this year, so far, is clearing out a lot of my unused clothes and completely reorganizing our storage, everywhere. We are outgrowing our house because there is so much that has accumulated living here for two decades. I am a big believer in the admonition, "Establish, Maintain, Improve Order", so it fits in with my continual search for better ways to organize my extensive belongings, LOL. And maybe start working out on our rowing machine again -- I have fallen down on that. Thanks for reminding me to be specific. 🤩
I appreciate your thoughts on this goal achieving business. I’m reading Atomic Habits and it’s interesting that, in addition to goals, tweaking my habits will be helpful. For example, I’ve wanted to be more reflective, and I struggle with this. So, rather than writing a diary, I’ve started using my planner to make ‘jots’ about my day in the Weekly sections in addition to the planning I do on the Month pages. Then I put my cute markers next to the couch, which is my visual reminder to pick up the planner and jot. It just takes a couple of minutes, which has been way less than the burden my mind anticipated. So far so good!
Yeah cant wait for the Michele newspaper!!! More you tube content absolutely..back yard or garden as we say in uk yes get on it nothing like looking out over a lovely garden. My goal this year is im going to dance more dance around the house in the pub and maybe even learn to rock n roll 2nd goal is New york memphis vegas trip in September, guide books are piled up on my table flight schedules in my planner so just need to save the money lol but im determined to do it. Xxxx
Yay dancing! 💃 🕺
I think 5 posts per week is ambitious. The only thing I base that on is that I work a 5 day work week, and it’s draining. Two days is not enough to keep flexibility an integral component of your work. It might be different since your work is inherently flexible, but 4 days might be the way to go. It’s my dream anyway!
This was a great video that im finally getting to mid February. My job sucks in January so its hard to embrace the new year mindset. Trying to tell myself its ok to start march 1 if need be or any day for that matter. I have plenty of goals this year. Some home projects like u have and a reading goal as well. Some different things are to do more yoga (my flexibility sucks without yoga), get a will (so morbid but its time), and to read/listen to things to specifically help w self confidence. I have my goals printed out in categories and i hang it on my bathroom door. This way i see them often and when brushing my teeth i try to focus on a section to remind me. Good luck on ur goals!
Hi Michele, just love following you and love your choice of topics. I watched your video on the Puzzle bag - and bought one ! You absolutely sold it to me....such detail, was very helpful, so a big thankyou to you
Please, 🙏 do a financial video. I think this sis very important.
Do a savings video and budget.
Yes Michele! I've been wanting to ask if you'd share your financial experience but I was worried that it might be rude to ask. Would be so interested to hear what you've learned so far!
Finance videos are a big hit on YT. I would love to see that type of video. It's very motivational!💕💕💕💕
I actually found your channel for the fashion videos, I didn't realize you did makeup too. I love your goals and having that reminder/feeling of setting up our year together. I love it!
Enjoyed this video Michelle! I love your sweater. I did not see a link. Happy New Year!
As you were talking about Masterclass vs. going to the gym, etc… maybe you could listen to the Masterclasses while you drive to the classes? Just a thought 🤗
I would highly appreciate a video on your financial background. -My goals are finishing our outdoor terrace. -Starting sketching again. -Pilates three times a week instead of one. -not buying any more perfumes this year..
Thanks a ton Michele. ❤ I don’t like monthly payments either…still have YT Premium..which is fantastic!
Hi Michelle! I cannot thank u enough for sharing ur goals, u cannot imagine how useful its to see it from u, i love so much this content as i learnt from u alot of things and was so happy to know someone also has same interest in stationery and notebooks as i do 😅 plz do some content about ur life experiences, stories, life lessons,… i really appreciate ur wisdom and ur way of delivering ur content❤
This is so intuitive!! I made smart goals this year too and hearing yours made me want to really hone into my goals even more. Love your content Mish. It’s so calming to listen to. Like you’re talking to a best friend! 🤍
I would love a financial history! None of us started where we are now, I love hearing people’s journeys
Hi Michele. I love whenever you post so whatever works for you works for me. 😂 I also love reading thrillers/mysteries and I hope to add more literary fiction and non-fiction into my reading.
I used Utube, never TikTok or instagram
Would love to hear about your financial journey!❤
Yes please do a video on finances. I've been up and my husbands illness set us back forever.
Try Love and Lemons cookbook or How She Glows. Love both
Yes I would be interested in a video on your financial history:)
Please post link to Master Class you talked about. Thanks Michele.
Yes Michele! Please do a video on your financial story 😊
Yes to the financial history video please!
Financial history video plz!!!! :)
I agree with you on the food. If you get good recipe source let us know. Good on you
Is Master Class something you can listen to on the way to Pilates or the gym? Just a thought if you decide to commit to it.
So preferred when you stuck to makeup reviews
Yes on a video on financial history
Where did you purchase the Space Pen?
Yes on the financial subject
Love this video Michele, it’s very inspiring to listen to you ´think out loud´ when working out the details of your goals. I also do not do resolutions, but I often set myself some keywords for the new year that I should focus on. This year its quality and contentment (I’m Norwegian, so some nuances might be lost when trying to translate). I'm your age and I pretty much have everything I need. When making a decision or considering a purchase etc, I want to focus on fewer, but better additions to my life and also appreciate what I already have.
I do not watch that much you tube, but I watch you. Quality. 😍
Quality and contentment sounds perfect.
Michele, sorry I’m late to the party here - not sure how this video slipped by me! Just wondering about your progress on your goals now that we’re almost half way through the year? Perhaps a check-in/update video? Also, if you’d like any help on content scheduling and managing, I’d be honored to assist you!
Thanks so much! I have updates/check-ins on my blog!
I just watched this for the second time and enjoyed it so much. I’m also a hobonichi fan. This video really made me go back and revise some of my goals to make them smarter. Thank you!!
Good luck on all your goals, I think they are awesome. I worry though about the 5 days a week You Tube uploads. While I would enjoy that, I don't want you to stress out too much. We would be happy with any new video from you! This year my goal is to work less and live more. I like how the Calm app focused on "growth" for 2024 instead of doing "goals". The latter focuses on the outcome which can be discouraging if not achieved. Growth is more about the journey and celebrates progress, big or small.
I agree that if you have the funds, pay off the car. I work in investments and the general view is that the only acceptable debt is mortgage and possibly education (both considered investments). In the current high interest rate regime, it is not advisable to finance something that loses its value the moment you drive it out from the dealership. Unless you go into some risky assets, your funds will not earn enough to cover the interest you are paying for your car. If you have the funds, just pay it off, be done with it and enjoy the car that is all yours.
yea i mean, watching it i was like “5 times a week? that sounds like a LOT”
For food goals, I recommend Sadia Badiei, aka Pick of Limes, has really great recipes here on RUclips & her website. She's a registered dietician, so I found her dishes to be healthy. There's also Gaz Oakley here on RUclips, who was a chef & makes fun meatless dishes too. I'm a meat eater & I thought switching up recipes I ate a few times a week for variety would be good for my health & my search led me to them. It's been great.
My personal goal is to keep working on my financial health; specifically throughout 2024, so I can travel more in 2025.
Dear Michele I enjoyed your video so much! It was very helpful and inspiring. I will be more specific when setting my goals. Please please share your financial history we can learn so much! Best regards from Mexico
Very helpful and thought provoking - thanks Michele! I need to try the SMART for sure but one broad goal is to use my Hobonichi more effectively - have been using them for years and love them but I need to get consistent. Now I'll try to turn that into a specific glao!
Hi Michele,
I too love paper goods so totally get your stationery obsession. ^^ If I'm not mistaken, you're a Virgo too so it maybe a Virgo thing? Wish you can accomplish what you've set out for 2024 with 120% success rate.
Would appreciate a financial video
Życzę wszystkim tej wewnętrznej dyscypliny aby dotrzymać przyrzeczeń. Bądźmy wszyscy lepszymi osobami. Good luck everyone ❤
Love your goals, and I’m glad you talked about SMART because now I can try to use that too. I haven’t really made 2024 goals yet…but I will give it a try with the SMART framework! They will be related to ballroom dance (my serious hobby, I dance every day), my job (need to set networking and career growth goals, I just started this job 6 months ago), buying a house (that’s the goal, LOL), and learning Russian.
I think you need to add. SHELVES FOR PURSES - I see them on floor I’m like 😮😮😮😮spending all that money and …..😂😂 I love to organize. It’s my forte. My daughter finally listened to me and did a list of HOME FIXES I helped her do the lists. I’m the shop smart No debt but home which will be paid 5 yrs. But yeah. Seeing your income is like a dream I LIVE THRU YOU ❤❤❤❤❤ I never had extra to buy , it amazes me how some have so much extra.😂😂I am like. If I had that money. I’d buy this…🤗🤗🤗😉. I even think 4 times is good. What is master class?? 3 times a week on others are fine You’ll burn out I think of you do more
love your vlogs
My goal for the next 3 months is to pursue an anti inflammatory diet. So far so good. I will continue depending on the short term results. Unsweetened almond milk in my coffee has been a hit. I have chronic severe pain. To add to my mobility I have adopted a dog, 10 year old Maltese mix, and am taking 4 short walks with him per day. I live in the North East and it is not easy to get motivated some days. I’m thankful that he is a very patient pup.
Your SMART concept is new to me and I see great benefits in looking more deeply into it.
Yes, I would be very interested in learning about your financial journey.
Great vlog today. Inspired me.
I have been having major dental work since 2020. Finally done a couple of months ago, but put me in a very large amount of financial debt. This year, I will concentrate on reducing that debt drastically. Also, have decided to exercise every single day and have been successful since the first of the year; 30 minutes every evening, either Pilates or yoga.
I don't like resolutions either. I take it one day at a time. Having a long list is difficult to maintain anyways and can soon be forgotten a few months into the year.
I have been using the small Hobonichi for the past 3 years and I love it. For me, it is kind of a diary/sketch book that depicts what's happening that specific day. It is relaxing to take time to doodle and sketch for a short time... like being in my own world and my own thoughts.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and plans with us. I wish you the best. This was a good tangent away from makeup. Thank you.
